Edge Defenders - PFF


bababoey

Recommended Posts

Everyone knows how much Gettleman loves D-lineman. In this article from PFF they break down some of the edge rushers in this draft. 

 

Take some of what they say with a grain of salt because PFF never takes into account the player you are matched up against.  So if one guy goes up against Collins from LSU one week and another goes up against some freshman at Northern Iowa,  guess who probably had the better grade. 

 

But one of my favorites, and probably not a first round guy keeps showing up near the top of all the stats, Trey Flowers.  He does not time as well as some of the top guys, and did not have a great combine, hell he did not even really have a great year as far as stats go.  But when you watch him play, he is just good.

Expecting big things from ol' Frank Alexander this year if he can stay out of trouble....and more development from Kony as well.  With that being said, I'm sure we draft at least 1 DE, just not sure which round.

 

On a side note, OP's avatar freaks me out

This guy does fantastic breakdowns over on reddit.  I suggest you check some of his out.

Nice find, I am enjoying reading those.  And I agree with most of what I'm reading too.  I've read the Abdullah and Perriman breakdowns so far and they both seem very fair.

I expect nothing from Frank Alexander.

To do so, would surely lead to more disappointment.

To be proven wrong, while expecting nothing, will always bring happiness.

I might try this.

 

I fully expect Luke to be the worst player in the NFL next year. Maximum happiness guaranteed!

    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
    • Yea Bryce was definitely a top half qb the second half of last season but I'm not sure Canales is 100% sold on him.  Like I've said in another post I think that's part of why we talked to so many South Carolina players in the draft process.  I think they are doing early due diligence on Sellers just in case.
